The Berkeley Richmond, Outset Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent
"We had a delightful 12 night stay here as we explored Richmond and Virginia at large. Happy, helpful staff, nice in-hotel dining option, and a quiet, comfortable, expansive room. Location is steps away from food, shopping, the canal walk, dining options, museums, and other tourist attractions. Easy access to highways and the airport too. Great price as well. Highly recommended!"
